Barcelona’s Lamine Yamal leading Real Madrid pair Mbappé & Vinícius combined in chance creation | OneFootball

A head-turning statistic, highlighting the ongoing excellence of Barcelona star Lamine Yamal when it comes to chance creation, has this week surfaced online.

Wide-man Lamine is of course in the midst of nothing short of a spectacular individual campaign to date.

Continuing to make a name for himself as the standout young talent in all of world football, the 17-year-old has dazzled from his berth on the right of Barcelona’s frontline.

Amid the Blaugrana’s ongoing pursuit of a historic treble, Lamine has racked up 14 goals and a whopping 22 assists across all competitions.

And his numbers in the latter category in particular should come as little surprise, when digging into the statistics.

As revealed by StatMuse:

‘Lamine Yamal is the only player to create 25+ big chances this season in Europe’s top 5 leagues.’

Not only that, but it is noted that this figure is one more than have been managed by Real Madrid duo Kylian Mbappé & Vinícius Jr. combined.
